I'm not that discomforted by Springer's absence... he was about to enter the game last night until Gattis his into a DP.
Really hard to see the Astros winning it all again. They can't beat Seattle or Oakland with any regularity, and Boston looks to be at another level. The Astros are largely stuck on three runs a game. That won't get it. Not over, but in some ways it looks over.
Around this time last season we were playing really poorly, and the Indians had won a billion in a row, how did that work out. We're 10-6 against Oakland and 2-2 against Boston. We could miss the playoffs, or win it all, I don't know. But how a team is playing at one point in the season doesn't say much about how they will be playing a few weeks.
Who were the Dodgers and Indians before those winning streaks last year? Combining AAA & MLB numbers, Tony Kemp has reached double digit HRs in back to back seasons. Kind of surprising.
White Power comes through with a triple. His OPS should be .960+ now. Correa avoided the DP. Yays !!!
Lowest AL batting averages (last 10 games) Astros .225 Red Sox .229 Baltimore .235 Only ONE of those teams is surprising.
Maldonado sneaks it passed a drawn-in infield for the RBI. Astros might mess around and score 5 runs today.
The last few games I've been too I've told whoever I've been with (friends/family) that White looks like a fat POS. Sorry, Tyler but you could probably stand to lose some weight.
White already has lost some weight. He just doesn't have a great body and that isn't going to change.
Does he really need to be 5'11 225lbs to play baseball? I mean, for a professional athlete, that's pretty fat.
Why do you care that much that you're willing to shout it to whomever you're with? Other than the fact that he really isn't and that he's become a much needed contributor, what does it matter?
